I am having a bad day. Nothing really bad, just irritated by life, I guess.
One good thing is there is no one around to take the wrath.
Started yesterday. I was walking down my 3 steps and twisted my left ankle. Crrruunncchhh! Then the other gave out. Then both knees. I lay at the bottom of the steps unable to get up...I just cried. and no one was around to help me up. Three hundred- plus snowbirds and no one to help.
Who was taking her walk? HillBilly Bobby's wife. Hillbilly Bobby is the grounds manager in the RV park who has a bit of a Hitler complex. She wanted to call Bobby. I quietly said, "No, he doesn't like me very much". (Story on that tomorrow)
A few minutes went by & she was fretting and becoming frantic. And even though I was seeing stars I eventually got myself up onto a step to sit. I told her I was fine so that she could continue her walk.
Two hours later Bobby showed up at my door::rolling eyes:: My ankles were elevated and I had a bag of frozen veggies on each. Corn on the left, peas on the right. HillyBilly Bobby was actually asking me how I was. For 3 1/2 months he has not spoken a word to me. Not even a "Hello".
So I guess what I did, apparently is forgiven.
Today, everything I do feels like a HUGE effort. Everything from taking a shower to doing a few dishes to getting to the bathroom, which is only 15 feet away from my seat at the puter. As a result I have been on the puter more than usual doing some work with Photo Shop. PSP is irritating me, too. I know what I want to do, but just can't get there.
The cranky old SnowBirds are REALLY getting on my nerves. Most of them are starting to pack up their lawn chairs, roll up their gross green Astro turf rugs from their patios, putting the bicycles on the racks on the back of the RV's. The last thing to get packed up...Golf Clubs!
Less than a week to go!
Exodus
Happy Birthday Carol!

Oh no! Don't tell me those Snow Birds are migrating back up here to the north! Where's my rifle?
i hope your are soaking that ankle i have week ankles so i am forever spraining them even just by walkin and i know that hurts. Psp its just a blank canvas i never really end up going in the route i wanted it to go as well i just have to settle with what i have lol sometimes i get it to where i want it others im not pleased with.
are you ok from the fall?
Take care of the ankles.
love the graphics
Oh, NO, Bethe!! Something else we have in common....weak ankles. I sprained mine so badly last year, I was seeing stars and screaming at Rob to bring me ICE before I even hit the ground!! OMG, I've done that more times than I can even remember anymore. I have terrible ankles and a knack for finding every hole in the ground, bump sticking up, whatever. I feel for you, and I hope you feel better soon!!!!
Hugs,
:) Carol
Yikes, Bethe, I tore a ligament in my ankle a few years ago. I was in an air splint for months. You did both of yours? ugh...I'd be more than cranky. LOL at your snowbirds packing up the astro turf. Take care of yourself and be patient with PSP. Some of the best things I made were actually mistakes. HUGS Chris
Oh dear, I am so sad to hear you took a spill and hurt yourself! I did have to laugh at your vegetable therapy though. Well maybe Hillbilly is trying to turn over a new leaf. I do hope you feel better tomorrow.
